VIPs

So a VIP arrived this weekend. No it's not my sister and Kent. They arrive tonight. It was a beautiful yacht called “Let It Be”. I thought, “This must belong to Sir Paul McCartney or some family member of the Beatles. Maybe a big star is in town!” Nope, I was wrong. A quick search of the Internet and here is a link to the website where you can rent this incredible boat. Yes, anyone can hire this yacht for jaunt around the Med and it will only cost you 85,000 to 92,000 euro a WEEK! Gasp! Check out the website as you can see the interior photos and the other little boats that come with it (inside it, how cool)! I wonder how much everything else costs. Is the gas and crew included? Heeeyy, it can sleep 10 guests so if you split the cost 10 ways… NO…. that’s still way too high for even a “once in a lifetime” type thing. I’m saving for the two-minute ride into space.Holy crap, something just hit me. I just thought about how much the people are spending while the boat is just sitting here in Brindisi. Go to Venice or Palermo. What the hell are they doing here?
